The connection of George Washington with Arbor day celebrations lies In the fact that this year he has been the Inspiration for the most g extensive program ever undertaken in this country. For a part of the general bicentennial celebration program this year has been the project, sponsored by the American .Tree association of Washington, D. C, of planting 10,000,000 trees, all dedicated to Washington, a veritable llvlntr memorial stretching from the Atlantic to the Pacific and from the Canadian line to the Mexican border. In announcing this project at the time that President Coolidge created the Washington bicentennial commission to have charge of the general celebration this year, Charles Lathrop Pack, president of the American Tree association, said: "What more significant and unique method could be employed to manifest the affection Washwhich American feels for Washington? ington himself must have loved trees, for his diary contains repeated references to their value and care; and he chose a spot for his home where their beauty Iff unexcelled. Along the shaded path that leads to his final resting place, two columns of trim, straight larches stand like sentinels, his constant companions, along with those thousands of Americans who come to pay him reverence during the daylight hours. "He must have loved the regal beauty of a tree. In the symbolism of a tree can WashingDeep-roote- d ton be remembered a like a Is man, coming up tree In the ground, cut of the earth, but lifting its branches to heaven. And as it grows in usefulness, so It grows In beauty. It may outlast the ages, it offers its shade to all alike, and Its disinterested ministries succour a thirsty countryside and provide for Its physical and esthetic necessities. So a tree bespeaks the spirit of Washington. He was democratic In his services, regal 1n his leadership, commanding In his principles, while he extended a brotherly hand to a new and independent people struggling for fuller freedom." Not only have millions of trees already been planted in honor of Washington and registered with the American Tree association by social, civic and patriotic clubs and organiratlons as well as by individuals, but the bicentennial tree planting Idea has now gone around the world. King Boris III of Bulgaria has Joined this great tree planting army in honoring Washington by presenting to Henry W. Shoemaker, the American minister at Sofia, two very rare Balkan varieties of evergreens, one for the legation garden, the other for the American school near Sofia. These trees have been plnnted by Minister Shoemaker, who Is from Pennsylvania, with the help of the legation stafT and with I. Kerekoff of the Bulgarian foreign office representing that nation. Mrs. Shoemaker, Mrs. May-sarBarnes, Mrs. Frank Barnes, wives of the secretaries of the legation, and Mr. II. Frey, the king's landscape gardener, aided in the planting f the tree. Joseph C. Crew, the American ambassador at Istanbul, Turkey, was the first represente'lve of the American government In the foreign land to register on the national roll when he planted three black walnut trees with Kugene on the naM. Ilinkle signing the application tional honor roll as a witnes. Following this came the registration of Fred Morris I fn ririft, American ambassador at Lima, Peru, who, with Garrett G.
